About Crescendo Grande Piano Studio in Palo Alto, CA

Piano is not just an instrument with a beautiful sound and Crescendo Grande is also not just like any other piano studio. There are several aspects to teaching piano which piano teachers must focus on very closely:

 academic aspect (the theoretical knowledge)

musical aspect (the creativity)

 physical aspect (posture and technique)

 mental aspect (the balance in the body through improving fine motor skills, dexterity and coordination ) 

In my studio, I stimulate and activate the student’s inner skills and help their talent emerge. I emphasize on exercises that would help student improve the above 4 elements. Your child will walk out of my studio with new musical knowledge, stronger body and a more creative mind.
